Ron, it seems to me that all Joshua is asking for is an emulation of the
MODE() function which (along with a few others!) SI 'forgot' to include in
SAS.
One of the reasons for the 'forgetting' may, of course, be due to the need
to define what to do with ties (i.e. multiple modes); 'options' to
functions are an unusual concept!
Regards,
John
